Even Jar Jar Binks wasn't CGI in every single shot as they'd made an actual suit for Ahmed Best to wear for certain shots.

Im amazed that they actually built the houses and pod racers

The Prequels are awesome

Here is a real producer. Disney just thinks they can hire a visionary and pay a "producer" to throw money at an idea until it makes a billion. That's how you get a product instead of a film.

Prequels: *working very hard to bring a unique story to life, gets shit on by everyone for virtually no reason* Sequels: *rehashed ideas, no originality, same template plot as the originals, gets praised by everyone* What the fuck?

The Phantom Menace is the second best Star Wars movie in my opinion. I understand if people didn't like the movie back in 1999, but it did not deserve to be trashed at all.
